LV Fratsun Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 So I picked up bob3's ratsun from 64tbird on sunday. Im sure you all know the car but here's a picture I snapped in Denver. I've been following this car for a few months now and I cant believe its finally mine! Quote Link to comment

DREWSDIME Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Damn I just sold him some 70-73 steering knuckles. Did he do swap before you bought car? Quote Link to comment
510_Dillon Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Any big plans for it? Or just leave it and drive it? Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Not too many big plans for now but Tyler gave me those steering knucles Drew, I will swap those in when I have access to my garage next week. Trying to decide what to do with the hood, the last one with the rising sun on it got replaced when it flew up on the highway. Also I want to fix up the interior a bit, the dash is pretty sad looking and the rear seat could use some love. 4 Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 You should Cine-Crop that photo... The black bars dont seem to work with the almost square dimensions of the photo. The picture is great though... you take it? Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Ya thanks I took it on my iphone4S, its the best camera i own! I'll give it a crop, any of u guys visit stanceworks at all? I see you're a JNC.com fan, love that site! Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I think there is maybe only one or two people on here that go to StanceWorks. And yeah, a big JNC fan. Theres more JNC members here than StanceWorks. I figured it was your phone. It had a very Instagram look to it. I just cropped it for you in true CineScope aspects: This has always been one of my favorite "Ratsun" 510s... you better do right by her. Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 ya that crop looks much better! Don't worry I dont have a fiance and I dd an xterra so the rat is staying with me and in good running condition Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 True Cine crop... 16:9 and 2.39:1. What are your overall plans for the car? Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Nothing too major besides a LSD for now... I want to put the rising sun back on the hood I think and clean up the interior a bit. Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Nice I saw this sitting at the Meinke's in castle rock for a while and wondering what the deal with it was, Glad to see it's getting driven! I got to check it out and I am definitely envious. Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Ya thats where the po works, when are we gonna do a meet here in CO? I go to drifing events through hotmustard but I would love to see the local ratsuns. Bob said we can come down to his track some time, I would love to shake this thing down at ppir Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 Well I sadly sold of my datsun, I was jobless and needed the money and getting 13mpg wasn't doing it for me regardless of how much fun it was. I did pick this up though and it surprisingly handles better then my Z did (don't kill me :D). I would love to bring it to the track sometime and get around some Datsuns. I'm in the middle of Swapping some bike carbs on it but I plan to have it ready by summer so I can get it to the Golden Super Cruise Quote Link to comment
dennis Posted May 9, 2012 Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 How many times was this car sold? I remember Bob having it then his son hit the front and then him thinking about selling it. Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I am not sure, but the previous owner jacked the price... Quote Link to comment
Npdavies. Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Bob had it, then the dude he sold it to sold it like 2 months later for 2.5k over the original price, now it's back here. I don't know who had it before Bob. Quote Link to comment
Ken_B Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Bob had it built it, then the dude he sold it to sold it like 2 months later for 2.5k over the original price, now it's back here. I don't know who had it before Bob. Fixed. Glad to see it back, one of my favorite 510's ever! Quote Link to comment
LV Fratsun Posted May 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I havent been on in a bit but here goes: I signed a bill of sale with bob way back in February but he sold it to Tyler (who i traded with) for $200 higher than what I offered him so i knew what it was worth and I was a little offended but it's water under the bridge. I traded my two cars (I paid $2000 for em each) and I traded with Tyler aka 64tbird straight. I love this datsun and I have no plans on getting rid of it, in fact I'm driving it like crazy and I have so many plans for it. Here's a couple more pictures: Ratty is there info on the golden super cruise anywhere? I would love to attend! Quote Link to comment
Ratty260z Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 http://www.goldensupercruise.com/ Here ya go. There is also a cruise down Colfax in denver as well, Once I get my honda going Hopefully sometime next month I will be able to get out and ask around what's going on, I'm still fairly new to colorado and I'm still learning the hot spots. 1 Quote Link to comment

Ratty260z Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I'm going to try and finish my car by then I'm not sure if I will be able too, but I will definitely make it for the july 7th meet. Quote Link to comment
